Even though I'm not feeling the romantic part of this episode, I do think it's a great lesson for Oliver, which makes it well placed and well timed. I really do like and respect that these producers look into "how does this affect Oliver" rather than "ooh! shiny guest star!"

And that is a good point. I like that Oliver's is growing from the guest star's appearance instead of taking a backseat to her story. I also liked that he's trying to set her on the right path and showing that he's learned a bit himself and is starting to figure out what sort of hero he wants to/needs to be.

Came into the episode late. Kinda thought everyone overreacted to the dinner scene,but that kind of stuff is typical for a show like this. It made Helena seem way too emotionally unstable. Didnt like that. Glad to see Felicity back though!

I think they are trying to make Helena emotionally unstable/wreckless. That's just her character, I think? She acts on emotion and that's why she does what she does
